We did a few fun projects to prepare for Father's Day last week. On Wednesday, we used liquid water colors and droppers to mix our own unique colors.

We then dropped the colors onto some shaving cream, and pressed papers down on top of it all to make marbled art that we would later use in our Father's Day cards.

On Thursday, we finished our cards by gluing our marbled artwork over the letter "D-A-D" cut-outs and cutting and gluing in a poem, and then writing our names.

Once the cards were done, we got to work making the gifts...sugar cookies! We had lots of fun taking turns measuring, counting, and pouring in the ingredients. We made our cookies in the shape of the letters D-A-D and then the kids got to use lots of bright colored icing to decorate them.

I hope you all had as much fun on Father's Day as we had preparing for it! :)

Loved the marbled art!! Did it with my children and loved the results. Thank you!
